The invention relates to a ship, comprising: at least one casing that delimits a cavity extending vertically across the ship's decks; at least one exhaust flue that is installed inside said casing and comprises a plurality of concentrated mass components and a plurality of components with mass distributed in length; a plurality of structures that support the plurality of said components inside the casing. Said support structures comprise: a plurality of main platforms, which define a main support base inside said cavity and is connected to walls of the casing at a ship deck by means of the interposition of main elastic suspensions; and a plurality of secondary platforms, which are directly or indirectly supported only by one of said main platforms and defines a secondary support base arranged at a different height with respect to the main support base that is defined by the corresponding main platform.

A watercraft includes a hull structure, a deck structure, and a propulsion system. The hull structure includes at least one hull each defining an interior. The deck structure is mounted to the hull structure. The propulsion system is adapted for moving the watercraft within a body of water, and includes an electric motor and an energy storage device coupled to the electric motor. The electric motor and the energy storage device are positioned adjacent one another within an area including at least one of the interior of the at least one hull.

A jet pump assembly includes a marine engine, a jet drive and a shield adapted to be secured to a transom of a watercraft. The shield has arms to which the marine engine is secured and legs to which the jet drive is secured, the arms and legs extending in opposite directions. The shield has a flange adapted to be secured to the transom of the watercraft. The shield covers an opening in the transom through which the jet pump assembly is passed during assembly. A gasket between the shield and transom prevents water from entering the watercraft.

A noise-vibration-harshness (NVH) dampening cover for a stern drive is configured to propel a marine vessel in water. The NVH dampening cover comprises a plurality of panels which together enclose a powerhead suspended from a transom of the marine vessel. The plurality of panels is configured to be suspended from an inner portion of a mounting assembly, the mounting assembly having an outer portion for mounting the stern drive to the transom.

A system for mounting equipment to a vessel's hull is disclosed. The system comprises a first stringer and a second stringer, where each stringer is attachable to the inside of the vessel's hull. The system also includes a layer of adhesive attaching both stringers to the inside of the vessels hull. Both stringers have a top cap for attaching equipment. Additionally, each stringer has a first vertical side wall connected to a first end of the top cap, a second vertical side wall connected to a second end of the top cap, and two flanged portions. A first flanged portion connects to a lower end of the first vertical side wall, and a second flanged portion connects to a lower end of the second vertical side wall. The system has an open side portion at the bottom end of both stringers.

A bracket for mounting a thruster to a boat includes a horizontal neck portion, an upper mounting support portion, a support plate portion that extends downward from the upper mounting support portion, and an enclosure portion. The support plate portion and the rear of the upper mounting support portion form a transom-facing surface in a plane that is generally at a right angle relative to a horizontal plane, within a small range of angles. The transom-facing surface can angled to match the angle of the transom of a boat to which the thruster bracket is mounted. A thruster can be mounted to the thruster bracket at a level where the thruster will be out of the water when the boat is moving fast and up on plane, and will be in the water when the boat is moving very slow.
